The Cardinals have always been a very good baseball organization, and I don't expect that will change when TLR moves on.

and I fully agree- I love watching them whine. Really, I laugh every time.

This* I actually used to have a soft spot in my heart for the Cardinals back before the days of the Central division. I just can't stand Larussa and Carpenter. I honestly don't know which one is worse out of those two. I never followed Carp before he became a Cardnial, was he always this whinny or did he pick it up from TLR?

Now its the fans!

“It’s going way too far when they start cursing your family and the funniest one, the guy’s yelling, `I hope you get shingles again,”’ La Russa said Wednesday. “That’s just stupid. But when you watch and you ignore our guy get drilled when the other guy gets a little stinger, it’s irritating.”

Re: Cardinals discussion thread

The broadcasters were mentioned in that article as well. Brewers broadcaster might never call TLR bush league... but I sure well.

I'd rather listen to Kelch read the phone book than suffer through Thom Brennaman's attempt to make every instance on the field the most important event since the discovery of manned space flight. -westofyou

Anyone else happy to see Edwin Jackson's line today? as I type this 6.2 IP 14H 7ER and 4 HR

Good move moving Rasmus, should benefit the reds for years.

Why on earth has Jackson been in that long? I about fell off my chair when I just looked at the box score. {Insert favorite LaRussa drinking joke here}...

I was curious about that as well. One thing I'll be interested in is if Carpenter continues to act as he does, and fails to pitch well, how well his teammates will take it.

If his teammates had an issue with his act before, what would they do, aside from Pujols, no one was perfoming at as high of a level as he was.

Now that there's a littly luster off the pitching, do his teammates stand up to him and tell him where he can shove it?
